As far as I can tell, Seal is as real a photographer as most of us on the
LUG, and as the yearbook has illustrated we're a talented bunch.

I'd also like to see more examples of the S2 in real-world use, especially
in context and environments I'd find myself in, but given the present
dearth of very used, beat-up (and maybe affordable) S2 bodies and complete
lack of S lenses > 180mm, my interest is entirely academic.

There are lots of ways widget makers get public attention.  Buying rights
to put their logo on photographer vests at the Super Bowl, for example.  It
doesn't prove anything about their products, all it does is put the
company's product in people's heads.
